Biography[]
The Guinea Fowl are a race of chickens which are described as the Warthog's natural enemy and worst nightmare. They are known to be capable of invading sounders to retrieve any supply of bugs they need and devour any warthog including any other animal with them standing in their way. One flock of Guinea Fowl surrounded a sounder consisting of Sharla, Chunder, Kevin and Tunka. Outnumbered and in no other way to survive by the time the rain begins, Sharla and her sounder lets out a distress signal to call for any Warthog to help them.
Timon & Pumbaa discovered the source of the call where they know the situation and sneak to the hut with the sounder where they relied on Timon to have plans on getting rid of the Guinea Fowl. Unfortunately for them, each plan Timon comes up with proves to be very futile to get rid of the Guinea Fowl. With one option left, Pumbaa has an idea to get rid of the Guinea Fowl by getting to the jeep they previously last left at Hakuna Matata and have it repaired. They soon returned to the sounder where Pumbaa switched the bag of bugs with the one with firecrackers in it to fool the Guinea Fowl as bait to ensure Sharla and her sounder escape with the real bag of bugs.
With that plan going forward, the Guinea Fowl fell for it as they tried to stop Timon and Pumbaa from escaping with the bag. Despite their attempts, most of the flock got killed during the chase while the rest were already lured away from the sounder to the end of a cliff and the bag of firecrackers were spilled out much to Timon's shock in disbelief. Timon was later struck by lightning, resulting in a spark to light the firecracker to explode, killing the entire remaining Guinea Fowl within the flock around them. After the entire flock's defeat, Sharla and her sounder are safe from danger while Timon was very unsatisfied of the outcome.

Trivia[]
- The Guinea Fowl in real life are technically not the Warthog's worse nightmare as they are known to eat insects instead. Given the fact that the Guinea Fowl are portrayed as carnivores, they are implied to be a new breed unlike the original Guinea Fowl.
- It remains unknown who provided the voice for the Guinea Fowl as they do squawk.
- Despite that the only flock Guinea Fowl in the episode havee been killed off, that technically did not extinguish all the Guinea Fowl as they are still alive even if more Guinea Fowl joined the flock surrounding the sounder.
